Collected for the first time, the New York stories of John O'Hara,
"among the greatest short story writers in English, or in any other
language" (Brendan Gill, "Here at The New Yorker")
Collected for the first time, here are the New York stories of one
of the twentieth century's definitive chroniclers of the city--the
speakeasies and highballs, social climbers and cinema stars,
mistresses and powerbrokers, unsparingly observed by a popular
American master of realism. Spanning his four-decade career, these
more than thirty refreshingly frank, sparely written stories are
among John O'Hara's finest work, exploring the materialist
aspirations and sexual exploits of flawed, prodigally human
characters and showcasing the snappy dialogue, telling details and
ironic narrative twists that made him the most-published short
story writer in the history of the "New Yorker."
